Humans could never support actual real socialism. We are corrupt dicks and would always figure out a way to exploit it for personal gain. Some form of hybrid system involving some degree of greed(capitalism) will probably always be required.
When has capitalism killed fascists without being backed by socialism, under a government that is the closest America has ever been to being a social democracy?
Especially compared to its preferred modus operandi, supporting the fascists and assassinating union organizers.
First of all worker coops are pretty much everywhere.
I could go to college for free and have healthcare because socialists who organized large scale strikes (they sometime then proceed to get shot by operation gladio).
And then, quite a lot of country still pretend to be socialists. Oftentime with very real mutualities who actually helps people.
Socialism never took root in America because people who tried to organize got shot.
Or imprisoned, or deported, etc.
Apart from some worker cooperatives socialism never took root anywhere.

The easy answer there is World War Two started 1 September 1939 and the soviets got involved 17 September of that year.
Now I’m sure you’ll answer my question, right?
Hum I would disagree.
